I'm fascinated by the fact that more people started a business/company in 2011 than people who didn't.

  There are two probable sets of selection bias going on -- one is that HN readers are probably much, much more likely to start a business than those from the general public (just like Fox News viewers are more likely to vote Republican) and then on top of that, people who started their own business are more likely to take the poll than those who didn't (because they are people who did start a business, clearly the topic is of more interest to them).
